Regime-funded secret police when you have unauthorised political opinions be like

Former policeman Harry Miller has won his Court of Appeal ruling against non-crime hate incidents in Britain.

You might be aware that Ireland is introducing this same (non) offence category after a British Chief Constable was hired as our Garda Commissioner and was probably one of the reasons why.

The UK's College of Policing first dreamed up this term. A non-crime hate incident is defined as where something you said is perceived by any person as being motivated by a hostility or prejudice against one of the "five monitored strands".

Under the guidance, police are warned not to engage in "secondary victimisation" which is defined as where they might challenge or query somebody's perception that a statement really was motivated by hate or prejudice. If a police officer does this, they are also guilty of hate.

Miller had tweeted things like:
"I identify as fish, don't mis-species me."
"Is trans-remembrance day an actual thing then?"
"Your hormones are synthetic. Your vaginas go no-where".

Police visited Miller and told him a non-crime hate incident had been recorded under his name and that without intervention, he would follow a five step process resulting in the genocide of transgender people. By tweeting what he had tweeted, he was at step one.

Reports of non-crime hate incidents can show up in criminal record checks for six years and police can send it to your employer to prevent you from getting a job or a promotion. There are no grounds to appeal against them.

Miller challenged both Humberside Police's actions and the College of Policing's guidance at the High Court in February last year.

A judge ruled the force's actions were a 'disproportionate interference' with Mr Miller's right to freedom of expression.

But his challenge to the College's guidance was dismissed, with the judge finding that it 'serves legitimate purposes and is not disproportionate'.

However, in a new ruling, the Court of Appeal found the guidance also breached his freedom of expression rights. The College of Policing will now have review its guidance to add in more safeguards for freedom of speech.

This category of (non) offence still remains however on the books for now.

Mesmerising watching the amount of effort and labour they put in to make something as simple as a scythe sharpening stone by hand.

“As rabid internationalists, the left are preprogrammed to betray the local interests of their supporters. In the same way, the Anglophiles and neocons of conservatism are preprogrammed to “lead their flock” as far from indigenous nationalism as at all possible.”

The Irish media are once again promoting the far right conspiracy theory that the supply/demand of available workers impacts wages and the ability of workers to bargain for better conditions.

"Overheated employment market" is a fancy economics term for "Not enough foreign wage slaves to compete with our own wage slaves".

> It said salary increases are likely to be in the region of 5%-10% this year. But, it said increases could be as high as 15%-20% in certain niche skills sectors. The upward pressure on salaries, it said, is being driven by fewer international workers coming into the country and a high demand for people already here.

> Morgan McKinley said it expects normal wage inflationary figures — of 2%-5% — to return after the disruption caused by the pandemic passes and as more international workers re-enter the market, easing pressure on what it calls “an overheated employment market”.

> Workers are "looking for opportunities that give them the right pay, benefits, and work arrangements in the longer term....there is a constant misalignment between the supply and demand for employees in the market. We’re experiencing the return of counter-offers because there is a strong demand to fill roles."

Helen McEntee blaming men for the Tullamore murder on Primetime tonight while it's revealed that the murder suspect was on bail for attacking another woman.

It was my understanding McEntee is a woman and in charge of the justice system which was why she had the power to grant a blanket amnesty to illegals last November.

From a 2009 Rape Crisis Centre study when they were estimating the foreign population at 10% although they've always counted foreigners with Irish citizenship as Irish to fudge the figures.

"African men were approximately ten times more likely to be accused of rape than would be expected, and Eastern European suspects were over seven times more likely to be accused given the proportion of the population that comes from Eastern Europe."

You ever hear the media discussing these facts? Was anything ever done? Will there ever be an up-to-date study given our foreign population is only increasing on a rapid scale?

Tullamore murder suspect released without charge.

"This male has been eliminated from Garda enquiries and is no longer a suspect."

Sounds like a very Swedish name to me. Also a reminder that Ireland has the highest rates of human trafficking in Western Europe since 2020 - that didn’t just happen for no reason.

The reason a foreign born, foreign educated migrant murdered a Gael in broad daylight is because of Ireland's Catholic run primary schools... 🤔

Sam McConkey suggesting on national radio that men should have to do a course and earn a license, similar to a driving license, to be allowed out to socialise

same "expert" that was all about the lockdowns in 2020/21, his experience of those lockdowns will prove invaluable.
